TJ House optioned to Triple-A

The Indians' fifth starter competition narrowed to two (Cody Anderson and Josh Tomlin) yesterday with the optioning of LHP TJ House to Triple-A.

Fantasy Impact:

TJ House will likely bring his groundball-inducing repertoire back to the majors sometime in 2016. The competition for the final starter job is heating up with Cody Anderson displaying increased velocity and an improving spike curveball. He still has options, so the easy decision will be to start him in the minors. Josh Tomlin was a revelation in the rotation last year, with a 0.84 WHIP over 64 innings. He could be shifted to a long-relief role in the bullpen if the Indians decide to keep both pitchers on the Major League roster.
